“You’re inches away from death every time you go on a mission. How much older can you be at your age? A half minute before that you were stepping into high school, and an unhooked brassiere was as close as you ever hoped to get to Paradise. Only a fifth of a second before that you were a small kid with a ten-week summer vacation that lasted a hundred thousand years and still ended too soon. Zip! They go rocketing by so fast. How the hell else are you ever going to slow time down?” Dunbar was almost angry when he finished.”

“Shh, kitten,” he whispered in English once more, nuzzling her temple, mouth open and hot against her ear. “Trust me.” His palms curved beneath her breasts, lifting them as his blunt fingertips tweaked her nipples expertly enough to have slickness gathering between her clenched thighs. “You are the most beautiful thing I have ever touched. Une ange, bébé.” He groaned quietly as he caught her earlobe between his teeth. “Je t’adore,” he muttered, thrusting against her backside.”

“There is no single time: there is a different duration for every trajectory; and time passes at different rhythms according to place and speed. It is not directional; the difference between past and future does not exist in the elementary euqations of the world; its oritentation is merely a contigent aspect that appears when we look at things and neglect the details. In this blurred view, the past of the universe was in a curioysly “particular” state. The notion of the “present” does not work; in the vast universe there is nothing that we can resonably call “present”. The substratum that determines the duration of time is not an independent entity, different from the others that make up the world; it is an aspect of a dynamic field. It jumps, fluactuates, materializies only by interacting, and is not to be found beneath a minimum scale.”
